DDPI Worldwide is running a series of regional Town Hall meetings this October and November and our entire DDP community is invited.
This is a wonderful opportunity for you to meet the our leadership team, share what is happening in your region, and help shape the future direction of DDP internationally.
We want to hear a wide range of voices and perspectives – whether you have been involved with DDP for many years, are relatively new to the community, or haven’t previously been involved in DDPI Worldwide activities. You don’t need to hold a formal role or have been to one of our events before to take part.
The online Town Halls will be hosted by Dr. Jacqueline Lynch and Dr. Billy Smythe, DDPI Worldwide Board Chairs, Prof. Erica Myers-Davis, Executive Director, and Dr. Vicky Sutton, Clinical Director.
We want to hear about the strengths, opportunities and growing edges for DDP in your region and explore one big question together:
If you could wave a magic wand, what could DDP look like in your region in five to ten years?
- What would you like to see more of?
- Who should DDP be reaching?
- What could training, practice, supervision and the wider DDP community look like?
- What would help DDP grow and develop in your part of the world?
The ideas and perspectives shared through the Town Halls will help inform DDPI Worldwide’s strategic thinking and priorities for the years ahead.
This is intended to be a positive, forward-looking conversation. There is no presentation to sit through – we want to hear from you.
There are four Town Halls, please register for your region or the one closest to you.
